Pigskin preview: Bovina has lots of holes to fill

• Last playoff appearance: 2012, the Mustangs lost to Wellington 56-20 in the area (second) round.

• Things 2 look 4: The Mustangs have made the playoffs every year except one under Guevara. They reached the third round in each of the previous two seasons. … Junior QB Joseph Casas has started since the middle of his freshman season. … Guevara hopes his cousin, senior Alejandro Guevara, can help pick up the slack for graduated RB Marco Terrones, who rushed for more than 2,000 yards. “He’s had plenty of reps, so I feel good there,” the coach said.

• Biggest area of concern: Experience. “We lost a lot of good kids,” Guevara said. “I think the ability of our kids to transfer from the JV (junior varsity) level to varsity will be the biggest concern.”

• Coach’s take: “Our first six games are like building blocks to get us ready for district. We’re going to have to keep everybody healthy; that’s the No. 1 key. And we have to keep improving in certain areas.”
